Collection. It is the development version of Ion, a light window manager.
There are a lot of new features since the release of the last stable
version.
Ion is a window manager dividing the screen into frames rather than having
overlapping windows, much like the windows in Emacs. Navigation between
clients can be done solely using the keyboard without need for a mouse.
"Package Makefiles should refer to PKG_SYSCONFBASEDIR instead of
PKG_SYSCONFBASE when they want PKG_SYSCONFDIR stripped of
PKG_SYSCONFSUBDIR. This makes PKG_SYSCONFBASE=/etc work with pkgviews by
installing all config files into /etc/packages/<pkg> instead of
occasionally putting some directly into /etc."

ObConf is a graphical configuration tool for the Openbox window manager.
It allows one to change Openbox's configuration in real-time.
One can change options such as the theme, desktop names, and focus settings.
Openbox is a standards compliant, fast, light-weight, extensible window
manager.
Openbox works with your applications, and makes your desktop easier to
manage. This is because the approach to its development was the opposite
of what seems to be the general case for window managers. Openbox was
written first to comply with standards and to work properly. Only when
that was in place did the team turn to the visual interface.
2003-07-23
Dave Holland sent a patch to fix some Alt+Tab misbehaviour.
2003-09-18
Fixed "losing control of windows" problem when switching desktops
rapidly on slow machines.
Released 0.99.16.
2003-09-25
Hopefully *really* fix that bug. Testers suggest to me that it is
now really gone.
2003-10-15
Integrated a patch from Neil Drumm to implement snap-to-border.
Run evilwm with -snap num to enable the behaviour (num specifies
the proximity in pixels to snap to - 10 is quite nice).
It's worth noting that Per Weijnitz sent a similar patch a while
ago, but I never got around to using it :(
Released 0.99.17.
* Fixed panel crash with corrupted config file
* Window management improvement
* Improved handling of multiple selections in the file manager
* French translations for the documentation
* Translation updates
* A new Gtk2 theme called "Xfce-winter"

different desks.
* Fixed sending M_NEW_PAGE packets to the modules if the page did
not change.
* With the styles StartsOnPage, SkipMapping and UsePPosition,
windows that request a specific position are still placed on the
given page.
* It is now possible to suppress title action or title completely
in menus created by fvwm-menu-directory.
* Added support for new BBC headlines in fvwm-menu-headlines, this
replaces the old BBC-Worlds and BBC-SciTech headlines.
3D-Desktop is an OpenGL program for switching virtual desktops in a seamless
3-dimensional manner on unix. The current desktop is mapped into a fullscreen
3D environment where you may choose other screens. Several different
visualization modes are available.
The transition from working desktop to fullscreen 3D environment is seamless.
In other words when the pager activates you see your current desktop appear
to zoom out to a point in space where you can see your other virtual desktops
allowing you to select another. The best way to understand is to try it out
and get the full effect!

Changes:
2003-06-10
Warp mouse to topleft before bottomright for small viewport users.
Fix the xpdf problem (started up in tiny window), hopefully doesn't
break anything else (XSizeHints manpage suggests width/height hints
are obsolete).
2003-06-27
Applied Larry's identifier shadowing changes, and malloc return
value checks.
USE_GCC2 or USE_GCC3 where appropriate.
the functionality of the old gcc.buildlink2.mk has been rolled into
compiler.mk now, which is automatically used.
more changes to come later...
Menu2WM is an utility that takes an XML document describing the structure
of a menu and converts it to the format expected by the most common window
managers.
The following window managers are currently supported: Blackbox, IceWM,
OpenBOX 3, PekWM, PWM and WindowMaker.
WindowLab is a small and simple window manager of novel design, based on
aewm.
It's click-to-focus, shares its window depth policy with the Amiga, and has
a window resizing/reshaping method similar to that of 8/5 from Plan 9.
WindowLab maintains the illusion of direct manipulation by constraining the
mouse pointer when appropriate, ie when a window cannot be dragged any further
in one direction. The pointer is also constrained vertically (effectively
making the target menu items infinitely tall according to Fitts's law) when
it's in the menubar to reduce pointing time.

for a possessive (like her, his, whose, their, and its).
Note that I didn't check for proper use of "its" (when it should
be "it is" or "it has" instead).
I also saw over 15 other grammar or punctuation problems, but not
fixed in this commit.
in PR pkg/22476 by Dandy Sakano. This patch corrects the erraneous usage
of the return value of setlocale(3). This bug has been submitted to the
fluxbox bugbox, but apparently has not yet been dealt with.
This package is based on the unstable 2.5.x series of fvwm. Do
not use it unless comfortable running beta software.
Thanks to Stoned Elipot, Martti Kuparinen, and Curt Sampson for
review.

now and not NetBSD-*-arm32. Changes include one or more of:
- Change MACHINE_ARCH == arm32 to also match arm
- Where ONLY_FOR_PLATFORM includes NetBSD-*-arm32, add NetBSD-*-arm
- Where BROKEN or worked around for arm gcc bugs, set USE_GCC3
The last may shake out a few more broken packages the next bulk build.
Changes:
1 - Fix line numbers for errors when using m4 preprocessor. Send thanks
to Josh Wilmes.
2 - Fix the way menu entries are selected with the keyboard. Now
when you type a letter, the pointer moves to the next entry
whose first letter is this letter, but does not activate it.
The new keyword IgnoreCaseInMenuSelection, can be used to
ignore case for this delection.
3 - New keyword : DontSave, Takes a window list as argument. All listed
windows won't have their characteristics saved for the session manager.
Patch from Matthias Baake
4 - Also from Matthias Baake. I let him speak :
With the new keywords BorderLeft, BorderRight, BorderBottom and BorderTop
(each of them is optional with a default value of 0 and takes a
nonnegative integer as argument) you can declare a border "off limits" for
f.move etc.. These borders act the same way as the real borders of the
screen when moving windows; you can use f.forcemove to override them.
5 - Sloppy Focus added with keyword "SloppyFocus" in configuration file
(DINH V. Hoa).
6 - the keyword "ClickToFocus" has been correctly implemented (DINH V. Hoa).
7 - the keyword "IgnoreModifier" has been added,
to use this feature, you have to add a line
"IgnoreModifier { lock m2 }" in the configuration file.
All bindings (buttons and keys) will ignore the modifiers
you specified. It is useful when you use caps locks or
num locks. You don't need IgnoreLockModifier any more with this option.
(DINH V. Hoa).
8 - New keyword : WindowBox : creates a new window called a box, where
all the client windows that match the windows list are opened in,
instead of the roor window. This is useful to group small windows
in the same box (xload for instance) :
WindowBox "xloadbox" "320x100+0-0" {
"xload"
}
9 - New function : f.fittocontent. Can be used only with window boxes.
The result is to have the box have the minimal size that contains
all its children windows.
10 - New keyword : WindowGeometries. Used to give a default geometry to some
clients :
WindowGeometries {
"Mozilla*" "1000x800+10+10"
"jpilot*" "800x600-0-0"
}
11 - New keyword : IconMenuDontShow. Don't show the name of these windows
in the TwmIcons menu.

metacity-setup is a graphical utility to configure the Metacity window
manager, allowing you to change themes, focus settings, the number of
workspaces, etc. It is much easier than having to use gconftool or
gconf-editor.
Package provided in pkgsrc-wip by marc@users.sf.net with some changes by me.
* Bug fixes
* All single letter variables are deprecated now; new variables:
$[w.id], $[w.name], $[w.iconname], $[w.class], $[w.resource],
$[desk.n], $[version.num], $[version.info], $[version.line],
$[desk.pagesx], $[desk.pagesy]
* The NoWarp menu position hint option works with root menus too.
* WindowListFunc is executed now within a window context, so
a prefix "WindowId $0" is not needed in its definition anymore
and it is advised to remove it in user configs.
* FvwmEvent now executes all window related events within a window
context, so PassId is not needed anymore, and all prefixes
"WindowId $0" may be removed in user event handlers.
libstdc++ in gcc3.
when defined, USE_GCC_SHLIB ensures that the correct rpath is passed
to the linker, and a full dependency on the compiler package is
registered.
packages which define USE_GCC_SHLIB should not include
mk/gcc.buildlink2.mk (or gcc{,3}/buildlink2.mk) as it is handled
automatically.
- pulling patch in from David Dellanave (solaris compile issues)
- fixing compilation issue for Mac OS X (thanks to Thomas F. Burdick!!)

")"'s in our ExecCommands.
